Freestanding Tomcat & Fatcat Assembly
Units come complete with an installation pack that contains the following:
3 Bolts
3 Washers
1 Hex Key
3 Felt Pads
You’ll need a large cross headed screwdriver to assemble your Hicat® noting that freestanding units can weigh up to 50kg so you may need an extra pair of hands to assemble your Hicat®
After unpacking your Hicat® give the unit a good vacuum inside & out to remove any loose fibres
Lay the Hicat® on the floor with the Access Hole facing up

Assemble the Base by locating the bolts with washers into holes on the bottom of the Hicat® - the three outer holes are for Fatcat & the three inner holes are for Tomcat noting that the centre hole isn’t required for this assembly.
NB the cardboard packaging that the unit was delivered in can be concertinaed & used to prop up the Hicat® at an angle - if your unit was delivered without cardboard packaging use stacked cushions or pillows to prop the unit while assembling the base.

Lift the Hicat® into its upright position using the Access Holes as handles - if you only have Access Holes positioned at the top of the unit wrap a sheet around the bottom & use this to lift the unit without putting pressure or weight on the edges of the base
NB we recommend un-assembling the Hicat® from the base if you need to relocate the unit - tilting & moving the Hicat® with the base attached could damage the internal collar in the bottom of the unit
If assembling on a hard floor place the Felt Discs under the Base when lifting the unit into it’s final position - these are best laid out equi-distant from each other & inset from the edge slightly
Playtime…
We love hearing from customers & their cats on what they think of their Hicat® so feel free to get in touch & send a piccie or two
